Captain Phil

...the best part of Deadliest Catch. He was a genuine individual. No doubt one of those people, who if you knew him in real life, made you constantly waver between wanting to hug him or hit him. Captain Phil delivered many 'Oh my god ' moments on the show - he made me laugh. He made me cringe. Either way, it was impossible to be indifferent to him. He surely earned,and deserved, his 15 minutes....

Enjoyment

spent the day rearranging the kitchen and stripping the wallpaper border - getting ready to paint and put down a new floor. It is a useless kitchen so I am trying to redeem it by making it pretty. Hope it works...LOL. We are going to re-do it in a few years,add a dishwasher and farmhouse sink along with moving the stove and putting in an exhaust fan and more counter space. In the meantime, we grill...alot.

Here is comes again

Well this strange yellow light thing was in the sky today then it went back to grey and cloudy and along came the cold front.But in a week or so we will have central heat and air in our house at last! Heat is not a big deal here usually and we have window air conditioners( the big one in the living room has heat and it really works well)but it will be nice to get our windows back - three cheers for Mitsubishi Mr Slim - hip hip hooray! And another shout out to the Federal government for the $1500 rebate and CPS Energy for their $480 rebate too! brought the cost down to $10,000.00-gotta love 2nd mortgages....

Sunday

Had a nice dinner of soup,naan and razzleberry pie for dessert. It is overcast and getting colder again. My project of the day was to take the old dogs beds, wash them and fill them with cedar chips(I threw the nasty loose stuffing out). Yesterday I glued some microfiber blankets on 3 sides and let them dry. Today I filled the blankets with the cedar chips and put them inside the washable covers. Smell good!The dogs seem to hate them. Stupid dogs anyway ....LOL.
